<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On December&nbsp;9, 2010, Cellu Tissue-CityForest LLC (&#147;CityForest&#148;), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc. (the
&#147;Company&#148;), entered into a Second Amendment (the &#147;Second Amendment&#148;) to the Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of March&nbsp;21, 2007, by and between CityForest and Associated Bank, National Association
(&#147;Associated Bank&#148;), as amended by the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, dated December&nbsp;4, 2009, between CityForest and Associated Bank (as amended, the &#147;Reimbursement Agreement&#148;). </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Generally, the Second Amendment amends the Reimbursement Agreement to extend the expiration date of the letter of credit provided by Associated Bank in
connection with the Reimbursement Agreement to February&nbsp;15, 2012. In the event that the merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September&nbsp;15, 2010, by and among the Company, Clearwater Paper Corporation and Sand
Dollar Acquisition Corporation (the &#147;Merger&#148;) is consummated, then CityForest is required, on or before September&nbsp;30, 2011, to cause the letter of credit provided by Associated Bank in connection with the Reimbursement Agreement to be
replaced with a substitute letter of credit from a third party bank. CityForest&#146;s failure to cause such letter of credit to be so replaced by September&nbsp;30, 2011 shall constitute an event of default under the Reimbursement Agreement.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Associated Bank also consented in the Second Amendment to the Merger and waived any default or event of default that would otherwise occur or
exist under the Reimbursement Agreement or related agreements as a result of the Merger. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Second Amendment also contains a release by
CityForest and the Company of claims against Associated Bank for causes of action arising prior to and including the date of the Second Amendment. In addition, the Company, as a guarantor under the Reimbursement Agreement, reaffirmed its obligations
to Associated Bank pursuant to its guaranty and consented to the terms of the Second Amendment. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This description of the Second Amendment is
qualified in its entirety by the Second Amendment filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Additional Information and Where to Find it </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with the Merger and required
stockholder approval, the Company filed a definitive proxy statement and other relevant material in connection with the Merger with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;SEC&#148;). INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ
THE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER RELEVANT MATERIALS FILED BY THE COMPANY BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY AND THE MERGER. All documents filed by the Company with the SEC may be obtained for free at the SEC&#146;s web site at
www.sec.gov. In addition, the documents filed by the Company with the SEC may be obtained free of charge by contacting Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc., Attn: Investor Relations, 1855 Lockeway Drive, Suite 501, Alpharetta, GA, 30004. The Company&#146;s
